<p>You Are Like Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You Soo Much!!!!</p>
<p>I am not so sure I did you a favor. Many LACs are amazing in Biochem and Economics and there are several B schools (like Indiana, USC, Georgetown, Emory, Washington University, Notre Dame etc...) that are also excellent. But the list I provide above, as limited as it is, is still pretty accurate.</p>
<p>DePauw University is an excellent LAC with an excellent biochem program and great facilities... Im going there in the fall, so believe me.. i know</p>
<p>Overall I would recommend Carnegie Mellon and Rice University based on the easiness of double majoring since it seems like you have diverse interests.</p>
<p>Biomedical Engineering, Biology/Sciences, Economics (now blended with the prestigious Tepper School of Business), and Business are all top in their field at CMU.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Rice University is probably the #1 school for double majoring and their sciences are also top in their field. They lack a business school but economics is respected.</p>
<p>OH, ok! Thanks so much! I'm not sure how much I'll like economics, but my parents want me to try it, so I wanna pick schools that have a good bio-ish field and then also a business field so I can try it out!</p>
<p>Hm...I also wanted to know about chemical engineering and electrical engineering.</p>

<p>WOW! Thanks sooo much! Hm...is there any place I could get this on my own? Is the Gourman Report published online?</p>
<p>The Gourman Report is good, but a little dated. Its last update was in 1997 and even then, it was considered a little dated. </p>

<p>Hm...last time I was on US News...I could get to see the rankings for specific fields? How do you see them?</p>
<p>For undergraduate education (no particular order)-</p>
<p>Biochemistry:
MIT
Yale
Caltech
Chicago</p>
<p>Economics:
Princeton
Yale
Chicago

<p>Biomedical Engineering (note - if you want to do this, studying biophysics, physics or any type of engineering as an undergrad, then specializing in grad school is just as good as doing an undergrad BME degree):
Johns Hopkins
Duke
Yale
MIT
Northwestern
Caltech
Princeton</p>
<p>Business (this is all about where you go for an MBA - just take a lot of economics, finance and/or mathematics as an undergraduate):
Yale
Princeton
Harvard
Dartmouth
Williams
Amherst
Wellesley College</p>
<p>Earth Dragon, I got my rankings from the USNWR Premium online version.</p>
<p>Good combo of biomed and pre-business econ? I'd say Penn, Columbia, and Duke would all fit the mold. Though I'm not sure which of those would allow you to double major or what. I know Columbia has a lot of reqs that make it hard to double major.</p>
<p>Oh, I see, Alexandre. Thanks!</p>
<p>Hmm...I think I might minor is one of them (probably business or econ)</p>
<p>My major will definitely by science related and currently tending toward Biochemistry</p>
